A Shadowy Figure
To most I may appear
just a shadowy figure in the streets
I may appear like this
but I didn't always look like this
At the age of 25
I fell in love with a tall handsome guy
Who loved me as his soon-to-be newlywed wife
Or so it seemed
Two weeks after we exchanged
our vows before the Great Divine
as a good supporting wife
accepted to leave everything behind
and enter into a world vastly different than mine
Oh why does love have to be so blind?!
How could I've not seen what truly was on his mind?!
As I walked in he said
You are in my world now
You have to do as I say
If you do not do as so
You will be beat for the day
How can this be?!
This is not what I had agreed!
I begged him to let me go back
but there was nothing I could do
to make him change his mind
for I was no longer a beautiful bride
but a face behind a veil I hide
only a shadowy figure in the streets
and even though I may appear like this
at least you know
I didn't always look like this

Holy God Miss Sahara!!........I am praying that this is just a fictional narrative.........but somehow, I think not............this is SO VERY well written that you must have written before.............the timing and rhythm of this is on point............it's heartbeat ~ a lotic pleasure............the fabric of the subject matter is compelling and overwhelmingly sad in it's essence but well conceived and beautifully delivered ~ I want to cry and celebrate your gift as a writer at the same time.............I don't have the words to convey just how good this piece is.............thank you for sharing this with us all...... 5*s FAV ........well done...........and.........WELCOME to COSMO................Love and Rockets!!............T xo
